i'm a tiny lil elf like creature (reference to LOR, not santa's lil helpers :) )

Elves have an inate ability to do magic? Can you do any?

My avatar has the coolest dark elf ever in it
 
hey, i'm proud to be an called an elf :D

now, back to night fly... that's one strong ass gal...

i think you should really look into getting a sport-trainer and see how they can work with you... squat's almost there.... dead lift can be brought up (you only have to do one, that eliminates the grip factor a lot which is my point of failure), and they'll get you up there on bench in no time (that's been my best progress.... a few months of doing declines regularily and i was able to push up over my body weight, no problemo)
 
austin... i'm glad i'm not the only one who benches more than he squats!!!

I started doing overhead (snatch) squats. They are fucking AWESOME. I follow them up with some one-legged squats. I'm all about functional lifting now. I think its much healthier.
 
my problem is a week lower back and not so good knees, they all act up on me real fast, at least Im starting to improve and I finally have decent form. My legs don't look too underdeveloped though, just a little bit

you should really look into that.. sounds like you're a powerhouse...


if you dont' mind me asking what's your height/weight


I don't mind at all....

I'm 5'6" and 168 lbs.

My bench is definitely my weakest point, so when I got 135 for w sets of 6 last week I was thrilled!!!

Well, I look at it this way...when I did the 255 for dl...It was literally my third time ever doing them. So...I don't see my going up in those a problem at all...

My knees on the other hand, really suffer when I squat. I have to go up in weight slowly because of that.

Flygirl knows that if she wants....I can help her get her ELITE :)
 
I am a shitty squatter and bencher, always good at rows and deadlifts.
At my strongest I bent Bb rowed 315 for 5 reps, military pressed 275 for 3 and deadli 315 for 25.I also dumbell rowed A 200LBS dumbell for 4 reps strict(my lats hurt for a week after)
Deadlifts I topped out at 500 without a belt and can do that with 3 weeks notice anytime. Not much but cinsdering I do them every few months I thinks is ok.
 
Those are very impressive stats from a female, especially the deadlift. If you did 255 only youre third time doing them I bet you'll be up to 315 in no time. Just don't try to jump up too fast, I've seen a lot of guys screw up their backs for weeks trying to DL too much.
